oxygen xml incompatible with sun java 6.0 vm

[Wim]

On java 6.0, the oxygen xml editor 7.2 starts; but sometimes you cannot close it.
Also sometimes you cannot edit your xml-files.
If you switch back java 5.0; i don't see any problems.

You can easily trigger this bug by:
Select in the menubar: Find>Find/Replace in Files
and search for something

Result:
Now you cannot select the menubar anymore.
Neither you can edit files.
Closing oxygen is also not possible

It seems it is the jide framework 1.9.1, that is causing these problems.
Oxygen 8.0 (bundled with jide 1.9.2) seems to work on java 6.0

[Wim]

After further evaluation, changing the jide framework didn't make the problems go away.

Hello,

At the release of oXygen version 7.2 the version 1.6.0 of the Sun JVM was not available, so version 7.2 was not tested with Java 1.6.0 and it does not support Java 1.6.0. Please use oXygen 8.0 with Java 1.6.0.
